Advantech has launched the AMAX Internet of Things (IoT) Control Platform, which integrates programmable logic controllers (PLCs), human-machine interfaces (HMIs), and IoT functionalities into a unified software-defined environment. This platform aims to address the complexities of traditional automation setups by enhancing real-time performance across various manufacturing and energy applications.

By combining these functions into a single PC-based solution, AMAX leverages EtherCAT industrial Ethernet and real-time operating systems. This integration facilitates microsecond-level precision, which is essential for operations like semiconductor manufacturing and vision-integrated production systems. Built on the CODESYS framework, the platform supports both Windows and Linux runtime environments, facilitating a smooth transition from existing Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) systems.

Advantech’s AMAX family includes three controller categories tailored for specific applications. These range from Panel Controllers with Intel® processors for factory automation, to Industrial PC Controllers designed for complex manufacturing processes. The Embedded Controllers offer compact designs suitable for edge data acquisition. All controllers support a comprehensive EtherCAT I/O expansion, ensuring compatibility with various legacy automation systems.

Real-time performance remains a focal point of the AMAX platform, achieved through Advantech's optimization methods, integrating Intel® Time Coordinated Computing (TCC) technology. The company’s engineering team ensures optimal performance through specialized system tuning and verification processes.

AMAX Studio serves as a fully integrated software environment, streamlining device configuration, program development, and diagnostics. Its capabilities support a broad array of IoT automation devices and industrial protocols, including EtherCAT and Modbus, thereby reducing development time and costs.

Targeted at precision automation and advanced machinery, AMAX provides scalable monitoring and control solutions across various sectors. The platform is now available for implementation in industry applications requiring precise automation and flexible integration.
